Following a US military operation to arrest Venezuela’s president, analysts say there is no easy fix for the country’s beleaguered upstream sector.
The platform brings the field’s installed production capacity to 1.5 million BOPD.
Even as output hits record highs, a growing recognition of the Permian’s maturity is opening the door for new technologies to improve performance.
-
This study aims to use machine-learning techniques to predict well logs by analyzing mud-log and logging-while-drilling data. -
This study presents the development of a novel modeling tool designed to predict condensate emulsions, focusing on key factors causing emulsions such as pH, solid content, asphaltene concentration, droplet size, and organic acids.
-
This study explores enhancing gas production through a novel combination of prestimulation using a coiled tubing unit and high-rate matrix acidizing.
-
This work introduces a fast, methodical approach to detect liquid loading using easily available field data while avoiding traditional assumptions and to determine critical gas rates directly from field data.
-
This paper discusses the journey of the Bonga North project, highlighting challenges and resolution strategies in a constantly changing deepwater environment.
-
With the right infrastructure and interoperability, subsea resident robotics could unlock more frequent, cost-effective inspections—and a new standard for offshore efficiency.
-
Emerging solutions could solve current subsea pain points, while a new taxonomy system could clarify the capabilities of the expanding domain of underwater vehicles.
-
As LNG projects sanctioned earlier this decade come onstream, a shortage of new final and pre-final investment decisions threatens to leave the project pipelines dry at a time when global LNG demand is forecast to surge over the next 15 years.
-
Rystad Energy reports that developers are increasingly turning to floating LNG to reduce costs and accelerate project timelines in response to growing gas demand.
-
Almost all rigs, platforms, and vessels have some form of cellular mobile services, fiber, or even microwave transmission. Nevertheless, all these vessels and assets are equipped with satellite connectivity capabilities.
